2 Kings 17:34 To this day they continue practicing the former rituals; they do not fear the Lord, nor do they follow their statutes or their ordinances, or the law and commandment which the Lord had commanded the children of Jacob, whom He named Israel
How many people reject God just because there is a few more fun things to do around them instead of commending their lives to Christ?
No longer do people fear God with a humble and healthy respect. No longer do people lift up the name of Christ instead of lifting up the signs and wonders of the world.
No longer do people read their bibles and obey the words written down. Too many are living a life which does not reflect the life Christ offers to us.
The people of Israel were just as guilty as us nowadays in that they went their own ways instead of following Christ!
